The Maverick

What if there were no stories?
Imagine how plain the world would be. No imagination, no creativity, no color.

That's how it is here. In Austrovaea. Autarch, our rulers, banned stories. And they have been gone since the dark ages. Since the Autarch first took over, our world is grey, devoid of color. And the worst part, the Uistiana, the townsfolk, think this is how it's been forever. The Elite, our superiors, and the Autarch, are the only ones who have machines. That's why the Uistiana looks up to them. Then you have the Insurrectionist, the 'rebels', if you will. They are the troublemakers. We stay away from them. And then there's just a few out there who know all about this stuff. They are so rare that they don't even fall on the charts. That's us. We are the Maverick. And my name is, S471. And I plan on changing the Autarch. Once and for all.
